Museum Archive: Vintage Blue Fox Rattlin Pixee, 3/4oz Blue / Nickel / Rainbow Trout fishing spoon #12254

Weighing in at a substantial 3/4oz (24g), this Blue / Nickel / Rainbow Trout pattern offers the density needed for long-distance casts into heavy river currents or coastal winds. This specific specimen, designated with product code 12254, is a Blue Fox Rattlin Pixee measuring 2 1/2" (6.5cm) in length. The heavy-gauge brass body is outfitted with a unique blue faceted insert, intended to simulate a salmon egg cluster. On the reverse, the nickel finish is stamped with the brand and model details, showing a high level of preservation. Maintaining a condition rating of 5/5, the lure appears exceptionally clean with bright reflective surfaces and robust hardware. It comes equipped with a large treble hook and split rings capable of handling trophy-sized game fish like steelhead, pike, or salmon. Anglers often utilize a straight retrieve in salt water or a tumble-and-roll technique in river pockets by managing line slack.
